After a delayed flight from a work trip in Dallas, Ellen wasn't too excited about landing in Louisville, KY and heading straight to a pre-game before a med school dance. But she vowed to try to have a good time with her best high school friends, Cailin (who was in med school with William at U of L) and Ella. Little did she know, she would be meeting her future husband that night! William and Ellen didn't start talking until the dance's after party, but after that they were inseparable all night. As fate would have it, William was heading to NYC (where Ellen was living) a month later to visit friends. After many texts, hours long phone calls and eventually Skype calls, the two decided to meet up again in the city. Five years later, they've lived in four states, each completed graduate degrees, skied 8 mountains, hiked hundreds of miles of trails and are more in love than ever!
